Abstract SAR images commonly suffer from speckle noise, posing a significant challenge in their analysis and interpretation. Existing convolutional neural network (CNN) based despeckling methods have shown great performance in removing speckle noise. However, these CNN-based methods have a few limitations. They do not decouple complex background information in a multi-resolution manner. Moreover, they have deep network structures that may result in many parameters, limiting their applicability to mobile devices. Furthermore, extracting key speckle information in the presence of complex background is also a major problem with SAR. The proposed study addresses these limitations by introducing… More >

Abstract Deep learning for topology optimization has been extensively studied to reduce the cost of calculation in recent years. However, the loss function of the above method is mainly based on pixel-wise errors from the image perspective, which cannot embed the physical knowledge of topology optimization. Therefore, this paper presents an improved deep learning model to alleviate the above difficulty effectively. The feature pyramid network (FPN), a kind of deep learning model, is trained to learn the inherent physical law of topology optimization itself, of which the loss function is composed of pixel-wise errors and physical More >
